When someone says the words
“Green Beans” to you,
do often start salivating…
Or plotting how you can get some….
Or, do you hide some in your purse
in case you need a little treat for later?
You don’t?
Get out of here.
That’s just plain crazy.
(Ok, I don’t either)
How. Ever.
These Saucy Sesame Green Beans are not your run of the mill bean.
They do NOT cry out
“Ho, hum…blah, blah another vegetable.”
No sir, ree. Not these beans.
Now. I am not going to tell you that these Saucy Sesame Green Beans taste like Cheesecake or anything like that.
But…
They are darn good.
WAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY better than your average can, or plain old package of frozen green beans.
They are accompanied with a
delicious,
peanuty,
sesame,
sugary sauce.
Try them.
Hope you love them.
Wish I were eating them.
Right this very second.
Here are your ingredients….in all their glory.
Ingredients
- 1 pound fresh or frozen green beans
- 1 T olive oil
- 3 T soy sauce
- 2 t sesame seeds
- 2 1/2 t garlic cloves minced
- 4 T brown sugar
- 3 T peanut butter
Instructions
1. Heat a skillet up over high heat. When it's hot add your olive oil. When the oil is hot add the green beans. Turn it down to medium high and cook until the beans are crisp tender. Should take about 10 minutes. Stir it around every so often so the cook evenly.
2. In a medium sized bowl combine all other ingredients. When the beans are done cooking pour the sauce over the top of the beans. Stir it around to incorporate.
3. Cook just until the sauce is heated through.
4. Serve immediately.

SO easy, my daughter would just love the flavor.
I don't like plain green beans but this takes them to a whole new level. I want to make these and get those green beans to be appealing.
Why yes I WOULD like to have those right this very second!!
Very easy to prepare. Love the recipe. I will try it today!
I made these for dinner and they were a hit. Even the non bean lovers were licking their plates. Thanks for the great recipe.
Oh my goodness! These are SO good! I am trying so hard not to eat the entire pan before my husband gets home! haha. I am about to post this recipe on my blog and I will put a link back to give you credit. http://hubbyapprovedrecipes.blogspot.com
I made these green beans a couple weeks ago and my fiance went nuts! I've never seen him eat vegetables that fast. This week I used the sauce for a chicken stir-fry, and it was perfect! I cooked some small pieces of chicken with a bag of frozen stir-fry veggies, then added the sauce as everything finished cooking. It was just delicious! This sauce recipe will be hanging around my kitchen for a long time to come.
I am Val’s mother-in-law. Val fixed these for one of Scott’s friends who came for dinner. His mom told me they were’ the best thing he had ever tasted’, so I had to get the recipe. thanks so much. We adore Val!
